Get Directions

In conjunction with the "Billy Budd" exhibit and "Going to Sea: Maritime Imagery in Our Special Collections" exhibits, come and learn how to tie some "sailor" knots and how to make "sustainable" scrimshaw art (we use recycled plastic instead of ivory!) Supplies are free and available while they last. This event is sponsored by the Friends of the Oberlin College Libraries.
